Alex, could you post your thoughts on the driver-OEM workaround? It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on the matter.

Thanks!

I too am curious to hear about your views on the OEM BIOS validation.

Quite frankly, I was both surprised and quite disappointed when I first saw the claims, and then the actual tools that work?

Please ... comment!

Oh guys, sorry but I have been away. Anyway, you poor guys are way behind the times on your cracking information. They currently have a method to activate Vista based on the OEM licensing scheme. See more here at this link.

Don't waste your time focusing on the ReArm cracks as they are not currently being used anymore. Who mines data about cracks for you guys, the three blind mice??? To think Microsoft doesn't know what cracks exist for Vista, hmmm..........

Does the Skiprearm hack really work to extend the Vista activation?

Last Friday, I blogged about the “Skipream hack” that lets you use Vista without activating it. A commentator here on 4sysops linked to an article on a Microsoft blog claiming that this workaround won’t work. Although the arguments of..

One-click vista activation is now available. Most of the data here, though current date-wise is very old. Your Rearm article above is only days old, yet that method has been known since the beta and is no longer used and shouldn't be your concern.

Like I had said before, don't waste your time with Timerstop, Frankenbuild and Rearm issues, focus instead on the OEM activation scheme which will be your most difficult to stop. Good luck alexkoc....

A workaround to activation on Windows Vista ?

I think what mhornyak was talking about what the date-related rearm. At least that's what I've heard about as a popular work-around.

I think mhornyak might have been talking about the date related rearm.

Many of my comments have been edited, removed and/or never posted. The reason for this is because the disinformation being provided here is strictly MS storybook fiction fed to users so these people will believe their activation security model works. First of all the most recent article above titled "Another reported workaround ineffective..." is talking about vista cracking methods that were available pre-RTM and are no longer used(Rearm method). With that said, we can all see why Genuine Activation is a failure. Development of it by Microsoft should be dropped as it is a waste of Microsoft's resources and is not working.

If you would have posted my articles, you all would have discovered that users are now fully activating Vista and using Windows Update easily with the current cracks available. This "head in the sand" mentality I have seen here is a shame, you would think my contributions were helping, however it seems the people who run this blog want to instead spread false propaganda about how Genuine Activation is working, what a joke.......

ioniancat21, I am not censoring your comments. As I posted previously I have recently had to start reviewing all comments prior to posting due to a number of inapropriate posts. Yours are not among those I have declined to post and I assure everyone that I am not filtering out comments because I don't like what they say. So far I have only had to filter out comments that contained legal speculation and/or threats to which I cannot respond because I am not a lawyer. This is not the forum for that kind of activity.
